A breathing mask has an elastic molded body which has area zones of materials of different hardnesses. This breathing mask is improved such that even with a one-piece molded configuration of the breathing mask, area zones of different hardness and constant wall thickness are provided. For this purpose, area zones integrated into the molded body are reinforced differently by means of a partial heat treatment.
